Re: [xsl] Move a section to different part of the XML tree based on child values

["Mukul Gandhi" <gandhi.mukul@xxxxxxxxx>]

I think, you can achieve the result by following stylesheet fragment,

<xsl:template match="/Folder">
  <Folder>
    <Section>
      <name>Visible Stations</name>
      <xsl:copy-of select="Placemark[visibility = '1']" />
    </Section>
    <Section>
      <name>Invisible Stations</name>
      <xsl:copy-of select="Placemark[visibility = '0']" />
    </Section>
  </Folder>
</xsl:template>

(not tested ...)
